I just started doing some exercise on the stationary bike and, of course, I had to re-read this.

I know part of it must be how people like to think of themselves as special, but I think I got a good if not great methabolism, too.

And I say this not because I am in great shape, no, but I am (almost) 38, I eat A LOT and I do no exercise AT ALL (at least until I started doing the bike last week). I should be WAY fatter than I am.

Still, I guess I am in a good moment of taking responsibility of my body as I have not done before.

(That, and my mom wants us all to go to the beach later this year and I want to look good in a swimsuit.)

Good to see you, César. My metabolism is similar. I don't eat but one meal a day, though. Occasionally, I'll have a snack or piece of cake after dinner. My portions are average size but I rarely eat it all. I weigh about 170-175, typically. I love walking on my treadmill and listening to music...Maximum Overdrive soundtrack is perfect.

(My loss of appetite has, I believe, been a side effect from some health issues, but, in general, I've never been overweight.)
